UK's Hague urges Libya to embrace dialogue, reform

None

British Foreign Secretary William Hague urged Libya to begin dialogue with anti-government protesters and implement reforms, in a phone call to a son of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi on Sunday.

 

Hague told Saif al-Islam Gaddafi that the Libyan government's actions in cracking down on demonstrators were unacceptable and would trigger global condemnation. "The foreign secretary made clear the UK's grave concern at the escalation in violence," the Foreign Office said in a statement. (Reuters)
